ee.Geometry.MultiPolygon.geometries
Returns the list of geometries in a GeometryCollection, or a singleton list of the geometry for single geometries.
Usage | Returns | MultiPolygon.geometries() | List |
Argument | Type | Details | this: geometry | Geometry | |

// Define a MultiPolygon object.

[[[-122.081, 37.417],
[-122.086, 37.421],
[-122.089, 37.416]]]]);
// Apply the geometries method to the MultiPolygon object.
var multiPolygonGeometries = multiPolygon.geometries();
// Print the result to the console.
print('multiPolygon.geometries(...) =', multiPolygonGeometries);
// Display relevant geometries on the map.
